    I can't say that south Florida is the hotbed of authentic living history or reenacting, but there are several of us throughout the state who tend to hook up in messes and have been known to attend some quality events with the WIG or AoP. There are also several southern companies who fall in with SCAR (www.geocities.com/SCAR/) who include the 48th NY, 1st Georgia Regulars, and the Pug Uglies mess (Orlando area), etc. You can send me a PM for more info if you need. Best of luck to you and welcome to Florida!

      Aaron:

      What about The Buckras? Let me know if you need Clif Hick's email address and I'll try and get it from him.

        I was including the Buckras in the above message, as thats who I roll with for anything worth going to.

            Here we are, some with whole skins, and some not so whole. Others have been left behind. For myself, I can only wonder if there is a bone left in my carcass when I think of the wholesale carnage through which I have passed. My bruises are inward.
